Introduction
My services are personal and individualized. Being part of a couple's life as it is beginning on a sacred journey is so fulfilling for me. I love to connect with the inviduals I am working with on their own unique service. The quality of my services does not change whether you have 2 guests or 200 guests. In addition to being your wedding officiant, I also offer help with writing wedding vows. The vows will be unique to each couple. I do not use templates. I get to know the couple on a deeper level and help to craft the sacred words for this special and sacred day. I also take care of the wedding license for the couple. I mail it in for you and make sure it is filled out properly. I am here for you with whatever communication and questions you need. Unlimited phone calls and emails with me are included in your price.

Reverend Kurt was a great pick for my wedding I’m glad that I went with him as my officiant he made me and my fiancé’s experience very nice. We are newly weds and we didn’t really know what to expect because this is both our first time getting married but as I expected Kurt came in and handled the job greatly. I will highly recommend him for your ceremony .love and peace .

Reverend Kurt Fondriest was an amazing speaker at our wedding and during the lead up before the big day! He was so incredibly helpful with our our vows, I am not sure how we would have done it without him. Kurt would regularly touch base with us and ask if we needed help, if we needed him to proof read our vows, and did several phone calls with both me and my husband to discuss each of our "vow edits". He communicated really well, and it is obvious he clearly knew how to structure vows in a way that still made them feel personal and not cliche. He also gave us several options on how we could structure the ceremony- religious, non religious language. I think without Kurt, Alex and I would have been very lost in the process- particularly with the wedding being just around the corner. Another thing I appreciated was that Kurt communicated (well ahead of time) several parts of his text for our wedding ceremony in order to get our opinion. He also discussed what options were available for his attire for our wedding so that on the big day there were no surprises and everything went well. I am so thankful we found Kurt (on such short notice especially!). He was funny, professional, friendly, very communicative and always punctual. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is in need of a wedding officiant or those who need help writing their vows!! He is a pro:)
